Howdy all, Not what some of you may be liking to hear but I had to go through this for almost 9 months of new pulleys, belts (multiple manufacturers) bearings, align this and that and then the rest of the front end of the engine. Ultimately I ended up having my truck bought back by FCA. Please...

Update 04 June. I went to arbitration due to 9 repairs and the truck needing a 10th it was determined that my truck is to be bought back by FCA. The mechanics and engineers of FCA were unable to determine the cause. I know others are having the same issue and recommend that you keep notes of...

Does anyone here have the 2020 yet? If so, any issues with the belt or out of the norm noises? Considering a trade in of mine since they cannot seem to truly fix my issue. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes this is it. Is this a 2019? Which engine (HO or standard)??

Yep that’s it.

That I am not sure about. They said they replaced everything on the front of the engine. I will have to look at the repair paperwork.

All components on the front of the engine (AC pump, Alternator, Belt, Idler Pulley, etc) have been replaced. I am a little afraid to drive it due to every other time the issue coming back. Since all of this started I have been without my truck for 26 days. I am hopeful that it is fixed this...

The saga continues.... Had my truck back for about 3 days... Monday morning rolled around and the noise was back even after all the worked they’d done again. This time they said we’re just going to replace everything. So they did to include AC compressor, alternator, power steering pump, idler...

Update... I received my truck back last Thursday from the 8th repair. The placed the belt for the 4th time, fan support, and bearing associated with the fan. Things seemed to be okay over the weekend. I started the truck this morning and the noise was back with a vengeance. As loud as any other...

Update: I called the dealership to get a status update. Local mech got in contact with next level guy. He was directed to change out the fan bearing / pulley, fan support and for the 4th time a new belt. Was told yesterday 10 March 20 that parts were on order and would be in today 11 March 20...

Ram returned to the dealership again this morning. Diesel tech came out and acknowledged significant wear and fraying on both sides of the belt. They like me are at a loss because they have done everything from replacing the belt multiple times, multiple pulleys, re-aligning all pulleys, etc...

All I can say is wow! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I took my truck to the dealership this morning and the shop foreman said he isn’t sure if the “stuff” in the picture is abnormal. He rubbed his finger on the surface of the belt and said everything seems normal. He asked me to bring it back on Monday morning to have his diesel techs look at...
